Heavy Music thread

Seen Knocked Loose and own a couple records. Familiar with Counterparts and Kublai Khan. I’ll check the rest, thanks

 

I forgot Poison The Well

The Opposite of December may be my favorite hardcore record.

 

Sounds good. I’ve always assumed KL was more metallic hardcore but it’s a fuzzy line

 

I've been an Agnostic Front and Sick of it All fan for many, many moons.
I will definitely second Knocked Loose and Kublai Khan, haven't heard much of Jesus Piece though,
Two of my favorite older Hardcore albums are River Runs Red by Life of Agony and Set it Off by Madball.

 

I find these quite hardcory

 

Black Metal mixed with Hardcore & Crust, what could go wrong?

 

If you are going the metallic hardcore route you have to include Shai Hulud. Counterparts owes their entire existence to Hearts Once Nourished

 

Black metal with crust influence is basically what piqued my interest in exploring more hardcore to begin with. I love that shit

 

have you heard Ancst?

 

I have not

 

Martyrdod is another black / crust favorite

 

Grew up going to hardcore shows but haven’t really explored it since the late 90s. I generally prefer powerviolence, post hardcore, screamo —

speaking of blackened crust anyone remember ISKRA?

 

just straight up hXc shit tends to have too much bro-jock energy. the dudes in mesh shorts and flat bills are the worst

i still love this album but can’t listen to any of their newer stuff

 

Ok, everyone post their Spotify 2022 wrapped

 

not sure if anyone else has done this “namefest” thing that uses your Spotify to create a festival line up for you

 

man i would not have expected metallica and ozzy in your top five.

not that its a bad thing!

 

I still love old Metallica and Ozzy though I will say I utilize Spotify more when drinking and hanging out with my wife so I have to be a little more considerate. I wish Bandcamp did a similar annual summation.

 

Yeah I did that yesterday:

 

anyone have a link for the thing that let's you do this?

 

Go to Instafest.app and login with your Spotify credentials

 

lol

always wanted to see Cocomelon and Nursery Rhymes headlining with Slugdge and Darkthrone

 

Darkthrone is actually playing live? I thought they didn't do that

 

jesus christ old man

 

peaceville is bombarding my phone with releases

 

Bandcamp Friday is nuts today. My email is chock full of ‘em

 

Here’s some non traditional(?) Christmas music that I don’t know where else to post —

 

If you like death/doom the new Dream Unending is really good

 

What’s everyone’s opinion on Sepultura? They are always one of my fallback bands. I listen to them probably 15% of the time. Are they my favorite? No but they seem to be played a lot.

 

I like everything from Roots and before, but I can’t say that I consistently listen to anything in their catalogue.

Chaos AD Arise and Beneath the Remains are super widely respected for their influence on extreme metal, and I appreciate that.

 

Beneath the Remains is rad

 

Arise has always been my favorite Sepultura album. Especially the song "Desperate Cry"

 

Gods

 

Ah - I meant to say Arise in my post, not Chaos AD.

 

So…. What’s everyone’s albums of the year? Here’s my top ten:

Immolation - Acts of God (death metal)
Véhémence - Ordalies (medieval black metal)
Amorphis - Halo (melodic death metal)
Morrow - The Quiet Earth (crust, post metal)
Blackbraid - Blackbraid I (melodic black metal)
Wormrot - Hiss (grindcore)
White Ward - False Light (post black metal)
An Abstract Illusion - Woe (progressive death metal)
Cloud Rat - Threshold (grindcore)
Dream Unending - Song of Salvation (death/doom)

Honorable Mention:
Worm - Bluenothing (death/doom)
Revocation - Netherheaven (technical death metal)
Venom Prison - Erebos (death metal/hardcore)
Ripped to Shreds - Jubian (death metal)

Morrow is my AOTY. I really clicked with it. I’m also just a big fan of Alex CF from his time with Fall of Efrafa and Light Bearer.

 

I’m not as steeped in the genre as a lot of people here but Pain remains by Lorna shore rules

 

Here's my top 5:

1. Vital Spirit - Still as the Night, Cold as the Wind (melodic black metal)
2. Inexorum - Equinox Vigil (melodic black metal)
3. Dream Unending - Song of Salvation (death / doom metal)
4. Blackbraid - Blackbraid I (melodic black metal)
5. Undeath - It's Time...To Rise from the Grave (death metal)

Honorable mentions:

• Nechochwen - Kanawha Black (melodic black metal)
• Ripped to Shreds - Jubian (death metal)
• Messa - Close (doom metal)
• Hath - All That Was Promised (death metal)
• Lorna Shore - Pain Remains (deathcore)
• Heltekvad - Morgenrødens Helvedesherre (medieval black metal)

 

Inexorum was great, I just haven’t revisited it much. I still haven’t gotten around to the new Nechochwen. I like them a lot, I have Heart of Akamon on vinyl

 

Just kind of everything i liked enough to add to my spotify library:

Arkaik - Labyrinth of Hungry Ghosts
Aronious - Irkalla
Anal Stabwound - Reality Drips Into The Mouth of Indifference
Antropofagus - Origin
Artificial Brain - Self Titled
Blackwater Sniper - EXTRAVIOLENCE
Blut Aus Nord - Disharmonium
Deterioration - Retaliatory Measures
Immolation - Acts of God
Knoll - Mephritic
PeelingFlesh - Slampilation Mixtape
Vomit Forth - Seething Malevolence
Wormrot - Hiss

“Reality Drips…” is probably my AOTY

 

this entire album is just one teenager. it’s fucking insane

 

You might like this. It popped up on my youtube a couple weeks ago. It's a band out of Italy that's been around a while, but they changed up a good bit of the lineup recently. Kind of that melodic "blackened" deathcore sound.

 

Off topic, my copy of Pale Swordsman arrived today.

 

me too, album is so good lol

 

New Ne Obliviscaris single.

 

Metal Top 10 for the year:

SERMON OF FLAMES ‘I have seen the light and it was repulsive’

HOLD ME DOWN ‘Powerless’

NECROSFERATUL ‘Ancient bloodlines mean nothing’

OLD NICK ‘Ghost O Clock’

PRIMITIVE KNOT ‘Ur-Metal’

LUNGTOUCHER ‘The ninth incantation’

CANDELABRUM ‘Nocturnal trance’

New Hellripper announced for February

 

never heard of them but i just listened to the single and really like it.

 

Check out the first album, Coagulating Darkness. Basically blackened speed metal.

 

The first riff on the first song "Bastard of Hades" is a rip off I'm positive I've heard it before but I can't place where. It's also driving me crazy
